Waking up to the smell of apple muffins will start your family’s day off right. Cream cheese filling makes them moist and tender, and oats and nuts in the topping add crunch.—Connie Boll, Chilton, Wisconsin

The muffins are good but next time I will omit the filling. I think it took away from the taste and would be better without it.

I've made a lot of muffins in my time but these were awesome. Perfect amount of moistness and sweetness. My modifications are to substitute oat bran for 1/2 of the four, and to bury some cranberries in each muffin before baking, as I love the contrast between tart cranberries and sweet apples. I didn't care for the maple cream cheese filling that much. I'm guessing the type of apple used and how fine it is chopped would greatly affect the outcome. I used one Rome and one Granny Smith, shredded instead of chopped.

I was also dissappointed with these muffins. I agree they looked and sounded so good. The crumble topping was very good and the best part of the muffin. The rest of the muffin was very bland and after sitting a while in the paper muffin cups they became quite greasy. If I was to make these again I would maybe use a different apple (I used red delicious because it's what I had on hand) add white sugar and use vegetable oil instead of canola oil.

Very good! Husband says to leave out the orange peel, though, and add more pecans to the topping. I will substitute 1T. frozen oj concentrate next time for the orange peel and increase the nuts by half. Son in law didn't think the muffins were sweet enough, but he may have been comparing them to cupcakes.

LOVED Lisadiane's review. Ditto for me! This recipe looks really good. Going to try this weekend. Oh and BTW SHOK, I'm a 110 lb loser at Weight Watchers. All things in moderation. Thanks for the recipe Connie.

I was so disappointed with these muffins :( they sounded so awesome. The muffin top itself was amazing but the bottom half was a little bland, but moist. I would only make this one other time only to push the cream cheese more toward the center (it just stayed on top) Oh and P.S. don't make the muffin if you're just going to complain about the calories and fat.
